Case Study: WaterBit Achieves Real-Time Agriculture Monitoring with Vantiq

WaterBit builds real-time agricultural monitoring system in less than two months using Vantiq

WaterBit, an agricultural monitoring company, needed a faster, more agile way to build and manage its real-time soil moisture and irrigation system. Its initial in-house platform couldn’t easily handle frequent updates, new rules, or multiple data streams across large-scale farm deployments, so WaterBit turned to Vantiq and its real-time event-driven application development platform.

Using Vantiq, WaterBit rebuilt its solution with low-code tools, distributed system capabilities, and real-time IoT monitoring. The company was able to replicate its prior functionality in less than seven days, after previously spending several months to reach the same point, and to build its full next-generation system in under two months. With Vantiq, WaterBit can now update sensor networks remotely, detect issues instantly, improve crop quality and yield, reduce water use and environmental impact, and speed up diagnosis and repair of malfunctioning equipment.
